In here in India there is not even a single "silver" x1 available. I have been waiting for the silver for more than a month. And if this is the first one which has come down i certainly dont wanna miss.

For me and for now the Bold is my device of choice but that doesn't mean it has to be for anyone else. It really is virtually impossible for any of us to say what is best for someone else without knowing them and what their needs and wants are. Really we can only ever judge what the best device for us is.
@WhyBe
Of course i don't know and can't be certain about what the E90 successor will or will not have. But it's a fairly safe bet as a E class flagship device it will be built from premium materials, it will have a full QWERTY and not the cut down version found in the N97, it will most probably still have a 4" @800x352, i also expect it will have a more powerful processor and I'm not sure it will be a Touchscreen device.
The only thing i am positive of though is that the N97 is NOT the E90 successor and never will be.
@1337h1um
Sorry maybe i did take your comments to seriously but if you have read enough of mine you would know even i don't think the E90 is small or for everyone. But that doesn't stop it being as good and as powerful as it is how can it. As for carrying it around in my trouser pockets well i have never done that with any phone not even a Moto V3 as i have always used leather cases for my phones and worn them on the waist.
Maybe also as i have been around since Cellular first launched and the first portables like the Motorola 8000s even a E90 is tiny by comparison. Once again just because you wouldn't carry and use an E90 because it's to large doesn't mean no one else can or wants to. But how can you make a device smaller and still give it a 4" screen and full QWERTY and i am happy to have a bigger, heavier device for the advantages the larger screen and keyboard give. As although the X1 is small you pay for that with a although wide narrow screen and a less then full QWERTY.
Now some may prefer that to have a smaller lighter phone but not all do or will which is why you have those that love their X1's and then others like me that have sold them. But just because i sold mine doesn't mean i hate it or think it's rubbish or can't understand why for some people it's perfect either.

Marc, please. The E90 was never king of anything, it was an utter failure, and there's a big questionmark over whether they'll even be a replacement for it, at least in this current generation. Who bought it, apart from you and that guy at AAS?
The Communicator line may have had a long and profitable following amongst business types, but the E90 with its rubbish S60 UI did not. It may have served adequately as a "look at me" flagship for five minutes, but it didn't sell.
If their is a replacement for the E90 in the works, you can guarantee it will be doing things plenty differently - for starters it will be touchscreen whether you like it or not, and it will most probably be made down to a more justifiable price too. Think N97 with less widgets and perhaps a slightly improved keyboard, and you'll be starting to wonder if they'll even bother. E97 anyone?
We're in a global downturn, and Nokia are under pressure from greater competition than they've ever faced - they can't afford to churn out another blog-pleasing, Dogmann-friendly, unsellable fail like the E90.

I have a Silver X1i.
There is a sticker on the side of my box that says "X1 Steel Silver".
Other than the picture of a silver X1 on the box there is no indication of what color Xperia is inside.

@Boinng,
You really do continue to spout some truly unbelievable rubbish of course not forgetting that just coincidentally which ever OS and device you use is of course always best at the time. First it was UIQ then it was WM and now its Apple wow it must be great to be as on the pulse and insightful as you think you are.
Firstly the E90 was and is no more expensive than any other top end smart phone and was around £500 off contract at launch. It may be a failure for you but isn't and wasn't for lots of very happy users that are still happily using them now. Just because you don't like certain things about it doesn't mean no one else can and to deny the power and usability of it is well just absurd unless it's smarter then you are.
As for what Nokia will or will not do i doubt you know more than most and in fact you most probably less far less in fact. I suggest you just stay happy using your iPhone and worry less about Nokia because i seriously doubt they value your opinions and knowledge at all.
Marc

Eh? I haven't said a word about UIQ, WM, or Apple. I didn't mention the E90 until you declared it "king of smartphones", in this thread about the Xperia X1.
Thanks for the compliment though. I do seem to be fairly "on trend" at the moment. It's not intentional, but not too much of a bad thing either (I certainly dumped UIQ at the right time).

Doesn't mean anyone else did, either. The E90 did not sell particularly well, and received VERY mixed reviews with some significant complaints from the very business market it was targetting; these are facts, not my opinion.
and to deny the power and usability of it is well just absurd unless it's smarter then you are.
Plenty of the target market did deny the "power and usability", since in many ways it was less powerful and less usable than the model it replaced. The Register didn't famously label it the "cargo cult communicator" for nothing.

You may well be right, but I wouldn't swear to it. Nokia have made mistakes, and they've moved far too slowly in the face of competition - they may well still be as arrogant and blinkered as you suggest, but they can't afford to stay like that for much longer.
